How about a stock VMWare, VirtualBox, Amazon EC2 image that is setup just
right for perfect Lazarus/FPC development, with all the options setup

Can you setup an Amazon EC2 image with all your preferred goodies, that
anyone could just clone and develop merrily after?

That would solve must FPC/Lazarus installation/configuration issues.
